Chapter Seven:
Post-It Fiasco
Valenti: You are
welcome to stay here as long as you need to.
Now that Tess…well you can stay in Kyle's room if you like. You know minus Kyle of course.
(He stares at
Lithia)
Lithia: What is it
Sheriff?
Valenti: I'm trying
to figure out how in the world I'm going to tell you can Liz apart.
Lithia: You can
always ask?
Valenti: Yeah, sure
(Lithia turns to walk away and Valenti notices a green
post-it on her back)
Wait! You seemed to
have picked up a post-it
(He takes it off and shows it to Lithia)
(Kyle, Isabel, Max and Michael are sitting in a booth at the
Crashdown waiting for Liz and Maria to come downstairs)
Kyle: I solved all
our problems with this little baby.
Max: Post-its Kyle?
Michael: Let me guess,
special post-its blessed by Buddha right?
Kyle: Look Heckle
and Jeckyll, do you want to hear what I have to say or not?
Max: Go ahead
Kyle: Well before I
left my house I put a post-it on Lithia….
Isabel: So?
Kyle: Lithia has a
post-it on and Liz doesn't
Isabel: God
Kyle! Did your dad drop you on your
head when you were little?
Michael: Hey, it's a
good enough plan for me.
Isabel: Max, will
you please tell them why this "brilliant" plan is so stupid?
Max: I don't think
it's a bad plan.
Isabel: (Looking
very disgusted) We are talking about
putting post-its on a person. You put
post-its on counters or books but not people.
You might as well go around putting labels on people that say "hello,
people are so idiotic that they don't know who I am so I have to put a label on
myself" Besides, it looks tacky.
(Maria and Liz are in Liz's room)
Maria: So?
Liz: So what?
Maria: Are you and
Max going to be an item again?
Liz: I don't know, I
Lithia!
Maria: Lithia?
(She turns around and sees what Liz saw a few moments
before. Lithia is dancing outside the
window similar to when Liz was dancing with Future Max)
Liz: (Opens the
window) Lithia, what are you doing up
here?
Maria: And why are
you dancing?
Lithia: (Climbs into the room)
I had this memory of dancing here.
Liz: Future Max
Maria: Future
Max? What are you talking about?
Liz: I'll explain
later.
(As they are talking Lithia pulls out a pad of post-its and
puts them on Maria and Liz)
Maria: No Liz, I
hate it that you are keeping so many things from me. You're my best friend!
Liz: I promise I'll
talk to you later. This just isn't the
right time.
Maria: When?
Liz: Next week?
Maria: Tomorrow?
Liz: Day after
tomorrow?
Maria: Done! Here at 7:00
Liz: Done! Let's go downstairs.
(Maria walks out of the room first and Liz notices the
post-it on Maria's back pulls it off and tosses it. Lithia tries to put one on her own back but it falls off. Liz come back into the room and grabs
Lithia's hand which makes her drop the post-its)
Let me introduce you to the Crashdown.
(Maria walks into the room and notices that Kyle is
rummaging behind the counter)
Maria: Kyle, what
are you doing?
Kyle: I'm looking
for post-its
Maria: What is wrong
with the ones in your hand?
Kyle: It's got to be
a different color!
Maria: Ok psycho
(She walks behind the counter and opens a drawer and pulls
out pink post-its)
Here ya go big boy!
Kyle: (Holding up the pink and green post-its) Green for alien and pink for human.
Maria: Are you on
medication?
Isabel: Just ignore
him, maybe he'll forget his brilliant plan.
(Liz and Lithia walk in and walk toward the booth. Kyle seeing the post-it on Liz's back waves
his arms to get the people in the booths attention. His lips silently say the words post-it and points to Liz)
Maria: What are you
doing? Never mind, I don't want to
know. (Walks to the booth and pulls the
post it from Liz's back) You have a
post-it on your back.
Max: (Max grabs Lithia's arms and pulls her toward entrance
to the Crashdown) I need to talk to you about something. (They leave)
Isabel: Can I talk
to you?
Liz: Sure Isabel
Isabel: Privately.
Liz: Ok, I'll see
you guys later. (They go up to Liz's
room)
Maria: (Looking at
Kyle) Isn't it time for your meditation?
Kyle: (Looking from
Maria and Michael) Oh, yeah, time for the meditation…talk to you guys
later. (He leaves)
Maria: So I guess
it's just you and me Spaceboy!
(She sits on his lap)
Ok, now what is the deal with the post-its?
Michael: Kyle had a
plan to be able to tell Liz and Lithia apart with post-its.
Maria; You're joking
right? That is too funny. HA! Ha! ha!
Michael: Ok what's
wrong?
Maria: Nothing..
Michael: You're
doing the fake laugh thing, something's wrong.
Maria: What does Liz
and Isabel need to talk about? She's
keeping all these things from me and wont talk to me until the day after
tomorrow but she can drop everything and talk to Isabel. I'm supposed to be her best friend. Best friends tell each other everything
right? And they…
Michael: Wait a sec,
Liz went off with Max. Liz is the one
without the post-it.
Maria: Whoa there,
spaceboy, forget about the post-its, Lithia went off with Max and Liz went with
Isabel. You don't need post-its to tell
the two apart. Liz is wearing the
necklace that Max gave her. And the
girl that went with Max didn't have the necklace on. Oh, they think….
Michael: This is
going to be very interesting.
